Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would also like to thank the witnesses who are before us today.
I'm pleased to see you again, Ms. Bernier.
My first questions will be about the Commissioner's fifth recommendation, namely, to expand judicial recourse and remedies. I am thinking, in particular, about the part of the last sentence which asks "that the Court be able to award a full array of remedies including damages", something that is not presently the case.
What do you think of this recommendation, Ms. Bernier? Is it possible for a court of justice to award damages against a government institution that has violated a citizen's rights, with potential financial repercussions for the citizen?
